Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet and welcome to the updated website! This is, what, version 5 now, I think. And I'm back to a homebrew website, and ipso facto, another victory for minimalist design. Just static XHTML and hats. Well it's a bit more exciting than that behind the scenes, of course, because the XHTML is generated from an XML file using XSLT, so that all I have to do to update the website is edit the XML to include a new project, then run my custom Bash shell script, which passes a hat name to xsltproc as an XSL parameter and outputs all of the HTML files. The search feature performs a similar process 'online' using JavaScript, which is a bit more flashy, but I've kept the implementation as minimal as possible, neglecting IE6 support, for example.
And I suspect you're wondering what "ka vom be, zəcəməɣʊ be" means. It's a saying from the Yom language, spoken in northern Benin, and it means "where there is life, there is hope". But it so happens that zəcəməɣʊ also means "hat". Needless to say, I prefer the more literal interpretation, "where there is life, there are hats". I mean, you can't argue with that, can you?
So where does this leave us? What is the meaning of the hats? How radical is radical? Who is behind all this? Who is the milkman? What is the solution to the P-NP problem? How are we going to tackle climate change, poverty and the energy crisis in a society that depends on endless economic growth just to function? I expect it'll all become clear in the fullness of time. Meanwhile, please browse at your leisure.
